1. THE REAL REASON TRUMP IMPOSED TARIFFS\n\nThe global elites hated when Trump stood up to them. Why? Because for decades, they used trade agreements to weaken the U.S., steal American jobs, and enrich foreign nations at the expense of hardworking Americans.\n\n? Trump’s tariffs on Canada and Mexico were NEVER about war.\n? They were about fixing the disastrous trade policies that robbed America.\n? They were about holding globalist-controlled governments accountable.\n\nThe media won’t tell you that Canada and Mexico have been taking advantage of the U.S. through unfair trade deals while at the same time allowing the floodgates of illegal immigration and drugs to pour into our country.\n\t•\tCanada benefited from one-sided trade deals while standing by as China dumped goods into the U.S. through Canadian ports.\n\t•\tMexico allowed cartels to smuggle in drugs, human traffickers, and illegal immigrants, all while American jobs were shipped overseas.\n\nTrump’s tariffs were a move to put AMERICA FIRST, not an attack on our neighbors. He was forcing them to negotiate fairly—something the corrupt elites NEVER wanted.

I’m sorry that Trump is so unreasonable. Trump only cares about the income that will benefit the rich, himself and power. The tariffs will effects jobs and people. Trump is an embarrassment to most of the people here. Elon Musk help him win the election by paying people to vote for Trump which I think should be against the law. Trump is putting the USA in a very dangerous place. Most of us stand with Canada and Ukraine but no one can bring Trump to reason. I really think Trump is plain outride stupid. Please keep fighting for Canada.

That same man is the reason why they have these tariffs now!!!!! Anyone that doesn’t see that is a fool!!! Get rid of him and your lives will go back to the normal!! I can’t believe ain’t no one said it yet!! But I will!!! Get rid of him, before he makes it even harder for them!!! Smdh

One disagreement Mr Trudeau: Trump is “very smart guy”? Nope. He certainly is “clever” which is what delineates smart from “criminal con man”. Clever is what he uses for his grift, with American citizens and the national stage as his target market, to line his pockets along with the pockets of his cronies, the ultra rich. The bright note is that there is a huge collective of Americans who see Trump for what he is. We are NOT supportive of any of this nonsense since 1/20/2025. Musk/Trump/Vance are an embarrassment we did not vote for. We stand with Ukraine, Canada, and Mexico who echo normal reason.

I voted for Trump, but it's hard not to agree with Trudeau on this even though I find this guy to be extremely unpleasant. There's no reason to start trade wars all over the world and in particular with our neighbors. It's one thing to threaten tariffs and a very different thing to actually apply them. If you do it has to be accompanied by a lot of diplomacy so that the other country is not overreacting, but Trump has been super combative prompting our neighbors to respond in kind to save face. While past deals may not have been great for US, this is not the way to handle our differences. Billionaires like Trump and his friends will be fine, but the majority of ordinary folks in the US and Canada will suffer. Very dumb, indeed.

What a difference crossing a border makes eh? On one side reasonable Canada, on the other an unhinged spray tan and his VP wreaking havoc globally for what seems like no reason but ideology. Respect Canada, shame on you America.

Hey USA, you have substituted one old crazy president to another. Get rid of those old farters and hair yang and reasonable presidents

It all makes sense if one realizes that trump is a russian asset by the name Krasnov. \nPrime Minister Trudeau, I hold no ill will against you, your beautiful country or country men/women. We, the reasonable Americans, understand that you must do what you have to.

There's a reason Trump bankrupted 6 times, including 2 casinos. He's a horrible businessman. He's trying to run this country like one of his bankrupted company.

Dear Mr. President Trump, would you please reconsider welcoming these wonderful fellow North Americans living in these TEN Canadian Provinces, not as the 51st State, but as TEN States, when being invited into the United States of America? These Canadian Provinces being Alberta, British Columbia, Manitoba, New Brunswick, Newfoundland and Labrador, Nova Scotia, Ontario, Prince Edward Island, Quebec, and Saskatchewan.\n\nSuggested is to make Canada’s existing 10 Provinces into 10 individual United States States. Canada will benefit with a strong 10 State influence within 60 United States governance affairs. Benefits are 10 more States on a balanced display welcomed as 10 white stars within the beautiful United States of America field of Blue of our Flag. Other countries will see North America’s Great Power when 60 glorious States, when combined, and working well together, communicating best when communicating with each other only in English, when English is the United States official National Language. No more Government waste of having multi language signage. Another geologically considered North American country, Greenland, with 4 more territories may wish to add four more States, as well as the many existing United States Territories across the globe may desire Statehood. The Sun will never set on the United States. As for 10 Canadian States, think of the  benefit of 20 mostly conservative thinking U.S. Senators which equals a larger majority of conservative votes in the larger U.S. Senate when composed of 120 Senatorial political leaders. 120 U.S. Senators keep the Filibuster procedure balanced. 10 Canadian Provinces converted into 10 United States States equals many more conservative House of Representatives votes enhancing the conservative majority of political leaders in the U.S. House of Representatives. So many good reasons why Canada’s 10 Provinces, with a mostly conservative thinking population of thinkers, should be transformed into 10 new United States States, not just one United States. Yes....10 more States that is the helpful way forward for the United States to have a very dominant conservative thinking population of United States Congress Political Leaders, resulting in a long term more stable United States Congress representing 60 United States, thinking more conservative, thinking more logical, thinking more common sense thoughts, thinking more capitalist job creation thoughts, thinking more tax cut thoughts, are just some of the benefits of having 60 United States of America States on  display, and functioning efficiently going forward for all the World’s Countries to marvel at.

Is there no one at CNN who can translate French? Really? I'm American, and I'm hoping Trudeau announces that he's making trade deals with Europe (and even China) that cut us out. Betraying our allies should never be incentvised. I'm even hoping they cut off our oil, which WILL jack gas prices, since our refineries in the Midwest are only deisgned to process Canadian crude. And the truth is that the reason for the tariffs is that Trump has direct control over them, and can probably have Elon do something with the revenue that couldn't be done with normal taxes. We're all getting screwed here.

Trump started this crap!!! We have to stand firm against this Dictator!! Less than 1% of drugs come from Canada - really that was his reason??? He is such a liar and idiot. If people in Canada don't want to be here and want to join the US - I say GO no one is holding you here!!!! Here is the door don't let it hit you on the way out!!!

For 2 decades Canadian cities have had a condo building boom (for non-North Americans, a condo(minium) is a building built by developers with the intent of selling off the apartments individually, instead of the whole building being one large rental property - that's a rental building) with the rather strange peculiarity that the bast majority of those condos are small - studios, one bedroom and one bedroom + den (in North American real estate linguo, a den is a small room without a window). There are some two bedroom apartments, and three+ bedroom apartments are very rare. One of the reasons for this is a general mindset that apartments are for singles, young childless couples and retired empty-nesters, while families are supposed to live in a house of their own. Another reason is that some archaic building codes restrict the type of apartments developers can fit in a building. The result of this is that in a country which certainly does not lack space, there are now tons of small apartments (the demand for which has been going down in many areas), but it's too expensive to afford a larger space to buy (whether a house or one of those rare large apartments) once you want to start a family.

Democrats are doing this FOR ONE REASON AND ONE REASON ONLY!!!! ETERNAL POWER!!! Sorry democrat constituents are brainwashed! VANCE 28!!

This is one of the reasons Trump threatened Canada with Tariffs AND it worked!!!\nCanada should be patrolling their own border anyway! They fail themselves if they don't.

theyll ban trans people for health reasons (no one has died of being trans) but they give soldiers cigarettes (people have died of cigarettes) (both make people happy)

Inuit? Cree? Ojibway? Any of these names sound familiar? These are the original inhabitants of Canada. People have been migrating since time immemorial for one reason or another. Instead of resentment against newer migrants start treating them with respect and empathy. Your forefathers were in the same boat as these Indians not that long ago in the scheme of things. Lighten up already.

It’s not Canada job to check on people going from it territory to the us, if you leave the us to Canada, it’s the responsibility of the Canadian borders patrol to know who they are ect..During the 60’s, Fidel Castro Ruz said to the Canadians: what they’re doing to us, they are doing to you to. Did the Canadians understood, like my infant daughter had habit to : I nen know. Today, in Quebec, Ontario, the factoriy buildings are still up but inside completely empty. After the implode of the Soviet Union as the only rooster on the block, they asked most of the countries around the world to shut down theirs raffineries, in Alberta Canada there is one in Balzac, nobody today knows it existence. The us produce light crude and theirs raffineries are built for heavy one, the reason they need oil from the outside and they pay very cheap for it, like Canada got 7 dollars/ barrel, not too long ago, today, I think it’s $ 16.00. To extract the oil from the sand, that cost a lot of money and the pollution level dios mios. They care, good luck. In Africa, with theirs vassals, they organize coups after coup, according to voster, i think, an Africa with the Africans is earth paradise, now they started to ask them to leave, they don’t need them. The canadian company barrick of Toronto just paid something around $480 billions, the ceo had a warrant arrest after his a… the australian one of resolute was in jail and paid what they owed, all of them are a bunch of thieves. They better be careful with the chineses but they are still long time better than any country the collective West. Like I said it, since the beginning of the 2000, the us and the remaining of the g7 will be at each other throat, GOOD.?

What no one is talking about is the fact that when the next census is done all these illegals will be counted and new congregational seat will be awarded to liberal states with increased population goving them an advantage in the House of Representatives. This is the reason Brandon allowed the invasion at our borders. The liberal media talked about the great replacement theory and we are living through it. Why hasn't this been a major talking point in any of the media outlets. This needs to be something the legislative and judicial branches discuss and address. Otherwise, everything Trump does will be for not. Upwards of ten million migrants will most certainly affect the voting base in liberal states. This has to be a major focus moving forward!

Make no mistake, the democrats and Rinos have done this for 3 reasons- 1. To destabilize our country (chaos/ bankruptcy), votes, with an end goal of a One World Government. They have been telling us this for decades, don't believe me go back through c-span and listen for yourself. It's all Bush Sr. talked about.

2:13 AI and drones / satelites solve large border issues, a compant recently invented one for oceans (i want to say its called OceanWatch) no reason it wouldnt work on land / with thermal/ infra red etc but im not a tech guy

One race in NYC is the reason they coming for Construction work. Men women. Sanctuary city's bad for Americans work for 30 years and have to pay for everything while invaders get everything free.

I have been watching you for a long time. And there is always a point you are not addressing in most of what I have heard. You will probably laugh at what I am about to say but please hear me out. The progressives running the policy’s do not only hate America for whatever reason, they hate God. They might not say that and even rebuke anyone who thinks that. I’m not going to get into that, it’s a whole Nother subject, but Jesus said those that hate good or worship being a false Jesus, even though they think they’re worshiping the true God. They are not, and so therefore they are what the Bible says, our worshiping a false God, who is the god of this world who was Satan. Now after saying that I would say that you can see that in their action. Anyone who wants to debate what’s going on in New York City on the side of correcting the problem has a point of view. But the ones that wanna keep these loss in place cannot justify any of their actions in debate that makes sense. They are liars and are following the father of lies and that’s all there is to it. The problem will not be fixed in your city until you having a big turnaround of leadership. People who are accountable to this constituents. People who love this country, not hated. Only a satanic group could hate this country that gives them every opportunity they could ask for. If you asked them, would they want to live in any of the other countries in the world they won’t answer you they will get part from the question and they will call you a miss information White supremacist or if you’re black a uncle Tom. They have an answer for anything good because their father is no other than evil. They get their playbook from evil. They can’t stand to be around any success. And one last thought. Joe Biden was ruled by evil. He opened the border on purpose to destroy this country at the same time. He was making millions from our adversaries. His actions have proven it over and over, but yet he’s not persecuted for the crime he committed. After you have a president that has destroyed America in so many ways. And the people that hate America love him. But he is gone now so they have to fight harder against Trump.\n Don’t have to mention any of the religious stuff in any of your segments, but at least keep that in mind so you have a clear picture and keep up the good work.

? first of all get it right mayor Adams is a criminal and he embezzled a lot of money from New York I grew up in the Upper East Side in New York okay and I used to like him until he was caught and and plenty of proof it's not about him doing anything about the migrants it's the fact that he changed his tune all the sudden when he's caught and Trump is willing to drop the cases as long as he goes with the flow and does with Trump says but if he doesn't he's legally allowed to bring the case back up that's why they have the case in court and the Seven judges resign because they refuse to drop a case a new was being dropped for political reasons not because he wasn't guilty and the fact that Trump had in writing that he could bring the charges back up there's only one thing that can mean if he doesn't go with the flow and be a good little soldier and doesn't do exactly what the orange buffoon tells them they can bring the charges back up that's never been done and is highly suspect that's called blackmail!\n\nBy the way a Democrats don't disagree with deportation and not letting illegal violent criminals into the country but we do disagree with separating women children and babies from their mothers and fathers and we do disagree with just deporting people that are brown black and Muslim many of them that aren't even violent now you can't tell me that it's the most racist deportation ever you name any Canadian any Australian or european that's being deported that's here illegally there's plenty of them I have plenty of friends that know people they work with that are Australian and Canadian and European that are illegally you don't see them getting deported I wonder why they're all white that's why!\n\nTrump wants to say he's only deporting violent criminal gang members more than half of the plane that he deported to a couple of different countries had plenty of people that weren't criminals or gang members and he even ended up deporting American soldiers and vets by mistake and they used a military carrying jet that cost $242,000 for every round trip 12 hours as opposed to what every other president uses a regular Boeing style jet that cost $102,000 for that round trip now you tell me that saving money that's called just showing off and guess who pays for that and he wants to do that every day oh that's a great way to save money?\nPlay you got Trump being harsher on Canadian Mexico than our enemies China and Russia oh that's right he's budding up and siding with Russia now over Ukraine telling the world Ukraine started the war? when Putin is obviously the aggressor and the war starter who even said on TV that he would have this war 3 months and no Russians would die! You now have this clown kissing his ass and spreading Russian propaganda that zielinski is a dictator Which is far from true because if it were true Trump would be actually kissing his ass like he does with every other dictator? I'm lying about he has a 4% of ratings Which is far from the truth he's got 54% rating zelensky which are higher than Trump's right now Trump's ratings are below that and they're going down fast!\nHe is crushing in the stock market he's crushing the economy and grocery prices are sky-high thanks to his tariff solution quote that he doesn't have a clue how they work

It’s about time, we need to do better! We can do more and continue to be diligent! This is just one of the many reasons we need to do more to improve the immigration system. NYC council needs to follow the law and drop this crusade of allowing illegals in without doing the proper steps! Hopefully POTUS can lead the charge to overhaul the immigration system and make it work better!?

They not only corrupted the Canadian society and damaged the civilized culture of Canada but one of the main reasons of tensions b/w Canada and USA . Trudeau government is fully responsible.

I totally understand why a lot of Indians want to leave. Huge population, fierce competition etc so obviously folks want to escape. But the problem is locals in the western countries are being outcompeted for high skilled jobs. This is ON TOP of these jobs being MOVED to India. You cannot blame the locals who felt that they are being eaten from both ends. The anger is palpable and this is ONE of the reasons why you see populist candidates win elections. I only wish we have a massive abundance of high skilled jobs to go around so Indians can also achieve their aspirations and dreams wherever they go.

Breeding like rabbits for a long time is one of the reasons

Thats messed up to treat anybody this way! One of the reasons that waitress and delivery drivers deserve a raise. They don't make enough an hour to put up with that type of treatment.

I am Québécois, and things here are quite different from the rest of Canada. For example, we have a law here that clearly forbids wearing religious signs when in a position of authority. Even a teacher, because they are a figure of authority for their students, could not wear the Roman collar, a cassock, a hijab, a niqab or anything else of the sort while in school. In the streets or any other public place, there is no problem at all. Everyone is welcomed to express their difference of culture or religion in the way they dress or in whatever other way. They are treated with the same respect and kindness as anywhere else in Canada. It is only that the separation of religion and state, and religion and authority is paramount here. Everybody is free and can express themsleves freely. But don't use that freedom to impose your views onto others. \nSo, when American judges are chosen for the federal court specifically because of their christian fundamentalist biases, it doesn't resonate well at all for me or the majority of Québécois. When the rights of the LGBTQ+ community are being questioned or jeopardised. Or a previous federal judgement like Roe v Wade is being overturned for religious reasons... it is a definite turn off for all of the Québec people to even remotely consider the United States as a destination to emigrate to (supposing that one would want to leave our beautiful country).\nMore and more, America, that used to be recognized as the land of the free, appears to be retrograde and restrictive and definitely not so free.

One of the reasons we have high capacity magazines ! These immigrants are menaces to society and a plague on mankind!

And This is one reason Americans voted for Trump!! This is a invasion and it won't stop until America ramp up deportations, prosecute any American aiding immigrants, and chastise Mexico for encouraging ppl to emigrate!! This is only the beginning, And if Americans don't develop tough skin, Third world countries will continue to come in mass hordes!!! TURN UP DEPORTATIONS!! PUT MILITARY ON BORDER, PROSECUTE ANYBODY AIDING IMMIGRANTS, GET RID OF BIRTHRIGHTS!!! IF NOT, SMH

And right here is one of the many reason to get every illegal out of the United States.

Democrats are clueless, housing costs are nuts and mass immigration is ONE of the reasons why. Yet they want more illegals.

Brut. Team! Why you linked this incident to a racial angle or racial point of view. \nI think, First of all, \nThis is not a complete footage, As usual, You are always mentioning one side of the story, just to gain some viewership and sympathy from Indian community. \nThat Man was just asking for his change amount return from this Pizza company employee. \nHowever, He (Pizza co. employee) refuses or hesitates to give him his change amount back. \nThat is the maein reason of the conflict. \nNot, Any kind of racial issue. \nRegards, \nMohd Ashar Quasim

* 1947 one dollar $= one rupee \n 2025 one dollar $ = 87 Rs \nThis is the reason why Indian want dollar dreams \n** Salary in USA 87 times great than India

the one reason why I'd never live in canada is the cold weather.

one of two things here she is lyeing about her gender or her service because trans can not go to a war zone due to may reasons. women are very limited to start with.\nSo what happens if your plane was shot down you ar taken prisoner and don't get your meds not to mention what you would be treated like in the mid east. where men are goin to risk lives to free you from where you put yourself full well knowing you would not be treated as any other POW. US military would do all in thier power to free you because they never leave fallen behind. and the push would be higher knowing the treatment you would be going through.\nif being a military pilot was your dream perhaps you had a choice to live with your mind or give up your dream. some choices are hard and not fair they just are.\nas this was done by a very bias news company must question all and any information presented.

Now you know how caste feels like. Aren't you guilty of disregarding universal rights and denying those in the lower caste to change their situation? If you want human rights then dont illegally enter other countries and dont trample on the rights of others if indeed you belive in human rights. Your police force alone is an embarrassment hitting people with batons for no reason. Work on your rights in your own backyard. You want your rights but dont respect the rights and laws of other countries. don't be one-sided

All your reasonings for Indian not getting visas are invalid or self serving for your Indian middle class Angrezi viewers. \n\nIndia, as U say, in the aggregate is indeed rising. But Indians — both padh and unpadh — have NOT risen and are NOR rising in tandem with India’s rise. \n\nWe see it all the time in places where Indians live in large numbers as in New Jersey, Atlanta, Chicago, the Bay Area… …\n\nMany Indians, even techies with all kinds of information on their finger tips when they sit in front of their computer screens, are unprepared on the local culture, ethos and traditions and history, just because thay have a loooong list buddies and relatives in their e-Rolodex on the day they land here. Their lack of curiosity in the local land is astounding. \n\nSecondly, getting rejected for visa is routine in many countries. They don’t haveto give you ANY reason why they reject your visa, no matter how well placed or well connected you are in India. \n\nIn my own case, I graduated from UC Berkeley, a premier internationally known school with in engineering with a PhD in 1984. Decades ago. \n\nMy education at Berkeley was ENTIRELY on scholarships and fellowships and fee waivers. \n\nMy family was not the so-called urban middle class living in 1, 2, and 3 BHK flats in urban India., or of land lords or of mid level bureaucrats, or judges or in the Indian corporate babudom . \n\nWe were from what is called in the US as working class. In India the terminology would be more offensive, “lower class.” \n\nFor my graduation, I applied for my mother’s visa (my mother, who became a widow at 39, raised us under great difficulties with a meager pension of INR 350. She had not gone to school beyond 5th grade and she had no ancestral property, not even a red brick in her ancestral home. \n\nMy mother’s visitor visa was rejected and to this day — I am in my 70s now — it hurts me that she was not present when I received my PhD at Berkeley, one of the top-rated int’l universities. They rejected her visitor visa probably because she had nothing to show as her assets in her application. \n\nBut later. with me getting a job here as a research engineer in a large corporation, my mother visited the US five times. \n\nNot only that, even my older brother and sister in law got a ten-year multiple entry visitor visa when the came for my daughters wedding. \n\nThe point I am trying to make to your mostly upper middle class internationally well connected viewers is that visas are ALWAYS a privilege, never a right, no matter how well placed and well connected in your home country. And how well versed you are in Angrezi and how good you are in your Angrezi accent, partly British and partly Amreeki. \n\nKollengode S Venkataraman.

Can you blame them. The previous administration offered a premium benefits package to any and everyone who wanted it. It was a literal freeforall. Now that a non globalist, non(I'm just going to say it)ONE WORLD GOVERNMENT administration is handling the border of the US, these people are stunned. They are pissed off that the free ride is over. Chances are, President Trump would love nothing more than to do business with the countries sending these people. He would love to make deals that would strengthen their economy, give people a reason to live there. Maybe these leaders should bring something to the table other than droves of their own citizens complaining about how bad the situation has become in their home countries. We've already got enough of those here as it is. Sorry.

one reason its not a good idea to have them serve is their transition surgerys and medication cost thousands and it just creates problems.

West will answer & it boils down to conduct and behaviour.... Economic leverage ? People will understand that it's a Farce...wait and watch...\nEvery one wants others to invest in their country - that's how revenue is generated based on Tourism.\nBut many Indians don't conduct themselves respecting other countries ethos.\nRecently some gang of people were Chanting Jai Shri Ram in their Train...some set of people were peeing in open see - detained by their Police...\nBargaining in their market as their birth right - not welcome in their society.\nOf all the way Indian men look at Foreign women ... totally unacceptable by their society.\n\nThey can't tolerate these conduct even at loss of revenue...they have other foreign countries who can bring in the requisite income to sustain their Tourism...\n\n\nThe reason why Goa lost its Tourism and the reason why Passport lost its value - purely on inability to conduct oneself respecting others to support others.

Even the ones born here. They anchored themselves to the 14th Amendment and claim Birthright Citzenship. This is the reason why theres so many illegals period. The 14th Amendment is for the newly freed slaves and their descendants the framers never had mass immigration of the world in mind when that was written

Canada ?? China ?? and Mexico ?? should put Tariff 100% on tesla Ford and Chevy and all American vehicles right away, bevause Elon is the Reason We American and Canadian people are not getting Affordable Vehicle from Chinese Automotive industry. He is the one giving trump ideas of tarriff on every country. Tit for tat.

one of the stated reasons for Trumps tariffs is to get Canada and Mexico to stop illegal immigration and to stop drug trafficking into the US

Illegal is illegal. Send them back ALL and let them come in the legal way. Americans are tired of being drained by these people who have not contributed to our economy. They are taking bread out of our family's mouths. That includes the criminals and non-criminals alike. They are all criminals if they came in illegally. America is waking up. That is one of the reasons we voted for President Trump. Send them back.

Dont think for one minute that Trump hasnt expected this response. Theres another reason for the tariffs from the US.

The only problem is Trump behaves like a 4 year old. You can’t reason with them. Look what happens if you say no to a toddler. \nTantrum . This isn’t a regular bully, actually need the advisory of a phycologist on this one.

mr Modi and mr Trudeau! is a good friends that could be one reason this
